  1. When buying anything you have an option of US warranty which any Canon importer in Australia will cover. You can buy a slightly cheaper grey market item which you need to return to B & H for repair http://www.bhphotovideo.com/find/HelpCenter/USGrey.jsp I purchased a lens there recently, but wondered if it is too risky with a camera and the potential for damage.
  2. Black Dog will also make leads any length you want, you can also ask for double thickness, you just need to put though a special order request.
  3. So by Chrismassy do you mean you already have the tree up?? Maybe that would inspire me also putting the tree up?? Cant wait to see everyones photos, this month will be fun I think!! Tree is up, wreath is on the front door, yard is decorated with christmas lights (we have a competition going in my street!) and Zero and Mow (my cat) have been chased mercilessly by me with a camera while wearing assorted christmas outfits. I've also ordered my 50mm 1.4 and I'm picking it up tomorrow... I think I will have a festive photo by tomorrow night lol. Just read this post LOL
  4. $149 at Camera House just saw a catalogue a couple of days ago
  5. OK Weibritty, here is another one
  6. Thanks, here is Jaffa showing his wild child side - you are all going to be sick of Jaffa photos before the end of November as I took heaps as his owners want a calendar - and I have taken tonnes of photos after a big break for about 2 years
  7. OMG, that is the cutest photo ever
  8. I don't know if it's true, but someone told me that huntsmen drop down off the roof so being up high doesn't mean you're safe I can't stand having a spider up above my head after being told that (I vacuum them up too!) Huntsman can jump too, straight from the face of the dog that is playing with it right on to the leg of the poor unsuspecting person who happens to walk outside at just the wrong moment
  9. OK, I have read and seen way too much on this thread, this is just scarey
  10. Well I finally took some photos this month of Jaffa who is nearly 2 and I haven't even taken a proper photo of yet, so I am going to show some off - I think my photography block is coming to an end
  11. Great photos, especially this last one. What course are you doing?
  12. Airdogs - http://www.airdogs.com.au have Reaching The Animal Mind and Click To Calm - I just bought Reaching the animal mind recently and they were the cheapest in Australia and I wanted it quickly, they always post immediately
  13. That is fantastic. Our obedience club has the DVD in the library and I know someone who has used it very well with a hound
  14. I have just been reading a book by Karen Pryor called 'Reaching The Animal Mind', a great book that also has information on fearful dogs and suggestions for dealing with it, might be worth getting a copy
  15. Karen Pryor's new book Reaching The Animal Mind is priceless - I would say if you can only get one book get this If you can still get it the Idiot's Guide To Positive Training is also an excellent book If you are interested in agility Clean Run magazine is great
  16. No, but if you want to take a look someone sent me this link http://www.petedge.com/product/ProSelect-S...anopy/45270.uts Clean run have a different brand, more expensive but I know they are good http://www.cleanrun.com/index.cfm?fuseacti...p;ParentCat=313
  17. I definately agree with Nekhbet. A good place to begin looking for a good puppy school is these two sites http://www.apdt.com.au/ http://www.deltasocietyaustralia.com.au/cg...ctors_index.htm Also there is loads of great information on raising puppies can be found here http://www.k9events.com/pups.html The k9events link also has loads of valuable info for breeders
  18. The worst stays I have seen was when a Toller broke, said hello and made every dog get up along the way, my dog was one of the few in the other direction to where the Toller went. IMO a dog who can;t be trusted with other dogs if approached in the stay shouldn;t be in the trial as it will happen eventually
  19. Wish I was in sydney, love having someone else taking photos of my dogs
  20. Bella only ever dropped in a sit stay once, but from my own experience it would be a rarity to have no dogs fail the stays
